Kris Everatt (R), a biologist for Panthera, and Mouhamadou Ndiaye (L), a field tech for Panthera, set up bait to attract a lion to dart and collar. The team builds a wall of branches around the bait so that the lion is in a good position to be darted in its hindquarters, and the bait is tied to a tree so that it cannot be dragged away.
